Brand popularity
Yeti is most famous for the durability of its products and has taken a large share in the drinkware market, whereas BrüMate is an emerging brand established by a young entrepreneur. In fact, when Dylan Jacob, the founder of BrüMate, started this company, he was only 21-years old.
Compared to BrüMate, Yeti is much more popular as this brand seized the opportunity earlier than other brands and has been promoting relatively outstanding marketing strategies.

Value for money
A BrüMate Hopsulator of 12 oz is much more cheaper than a Yeti Colster with the same capacity. More exactly, a Yeti Colster ($39.99) is almost twice as expensive as a BrüMate Hopsulator ($19.99).
Given their own strengths and disadvantages, it is much more cost-efficient to get a BrüMate Hopsulator. You can pay the same money for different colors and styles. However, just as we have mentioned above, the price of a Yeti Colster can vary from $24.98 to $47.67 based simply on the color.
Both of them are superior koozies. If you care more about your budget, go and get a BrüMate Hopsulator.

Insulation performance
Our conclusion comes first: both BrüMate Hopsulator and Yeti Colster koozies are well-insulated, and BrüMate Hopsulator can coolers do a better job in terms of the insulation performance.
According to our temperature tests, when a BrüMate Hopsulator is filled with ice cubes, the temperature inside of the koozie only rises 2 degrees Celsius in 2 hours. When it comes a Yeti Colster with the condition given above, the temperature rises 5 degrees Celsius.
So why does a BrüMate Hopsulator boast a better insulation function? The answer is quite simple. Apart from adopting a double-walled insulation structure in a BrüMate Hopsulator koozie, the can cooler is also plated with a layer of copper that greatly enhances the heat-retaining capability. It is this extra layer of copper that makes a difference.
-
Locking performance
Inventing two strong locking designs respectively, both BrüMate Hopsulator and Yeti Colster koozies yield perfect locking performance.
BrüMate Hopsulator can coolers adopt Push-lock technology to lock cans firmly in the koozie, and Yeti Colster uses Close Tie tech to make sure that the can stays in place.
